1.3.3 Invocation of Referenced Standards. The fol- lowing examples define the invocation of a standard when specified in the Reference section and referenced in the text of this Standard: (a) When a referenced standard is cited in the text with no limitations to a specific subject or paragraph(s) ofthestandard, theentirestandardis invoked. Forexam- ple, “dimensioning and tolerancing shall be in accor- dance with ASME Y14.5” is invoking the complete standard because the subject of the standard is dimen- sioning and tolerancing and no specific subject of para- graph(s) within the standard are invoked. (b) When a referenced standard is cited in the text with limitations to a specific subject or paragraph(s) of the standard, only the paragraph(s) on that subject is invoked. For example, “assign part or identifying num- bers in accordance with ASME Y14.100” is only invoking the paragraph(s) on part or identifying numbers because the subject of the standard is engineering drawing prac- tices and part or identifying numbers is a specific subject within the standard. (c) When a reference standard is cited in the textwith- out an invoking statement such as “in accordance with,” the standard is for guidance only. For example, “for gaging principles see ASME Y14.43” is only for guidance and no portion of the standard is invoked.
1.3.8 Figures. The figures in this Standard are intended only as illustrations to aid the user in under- standing the practices described in the text. In some cases, figures show a level ofdetail as needed forempha- sis. In other cases, figures are incomplete by intent so as to illustrate a concept or facet thereof. The absence of figure(s) has no bearing on the applicability of the stated requirements or practice. To comply with the requirements ofthis Standard, actual data sets shall meet the content requirements set forth in the text. To assist the user of this Standard, a listing of the paragraph(s) that refer to an illustration appears in the lower right- hand corner of each figure. This listing may not be all- inclusive. The absence of a listing is not a reason to assume inapplicability. Most figures are illustrations of models in a three-dimensional environment. Figures illustrating drawings in digital format have a border included. When the letter “h” is used in figures for letter heights or for symbol proportions, select the applicable letter height in accordance with ASME Y14.2.ASME Y14.1 pdf download.
